Inclusion Criteria:

• 1. Age ≥18 years old;
• 2. Understand the steps and contents of the study, and voluntary to sign the written informed consent form;
• 3. Recurrent or metastatic cervical cancer diagnosed by histology or cytology;
• 4. Recurrent or metastatic after receiving at least first-line platinum base chemotherapy (≥1 period) (Subjects who progress or recur during or within 6 months after the end of platinum-based new adjuvant or adjuvant chemotherapy are deemed to have received first-line treatment);
• 5. Subjects must have at least one measurable target lesion (lesion with longest diameter ≥10mm, or lymph node with short diameter ≥15mm) tested by CT or MRI according to the RECIST 1.1 criteria;
• 6. Expected survival period ≥3 months;
• 7. ECOG score 0-1 point;
• 8. Subjects shall provide sufficient formalin fixed paraffin embedded (FFPE) specimens or sections prepared from tumor archived tissues or fresh tissues that meet the test criteria, and are willing to perform biopsy of tumor tissues for test of PD-L1 if needed. The archived tissue shall be a representative tumor specimen within three years, or unstained serial sections (not less than 4) of the newly cut FFPE tumor tissue within six months, and the above-mentioned specimens related pathology reports shall also be provided. Fresh tissue specimens can be obtained by resection, core needle biopsy, excision, stamping or forceps biopsy (more than 100 tumor cells must be guaranteed); samples are not accepted for fine needle puncture and liquid based cytology test (TCT) (namely, the samples lack of complete tissue structure thus to only provide cell suspension and/or cell smear); decalcified bone metastatic tumor samples are not accepted. For core-needle biopsy specimens, at least 3 single paraffin embedded specimens shall be submitted for evaluation. For patients with PD-L1 negative in initially archived tumor tissue samples, biopsy can be performed during screening with the patients' consent to provide fresh tissue prepared paraffin blocks or sections for retest of PD-L1 status, and the qualification of this study is met if any kind of tumor tissue samples have positive results;

• 9. The values of laboratory tests performed during screening shall meet the following criteria:

  • Blood routine test (No blood transfusion within 14 days before test, no use of G-CSF, no use of drug correction);

    1. Hemoglobin (HGB) ≥90 g/L;
    2. Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥1.5×109/L;
    3. Blood platelet (PLT) ≥100×109/L；

  • Biochemical test

    1. Total bilirubin (TBIL) ≤1.5× Upper limit of normal (ULN) (Gilbert syndrome allowance ≤5×ULN);
    2. Alanine transaminase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) ≤2.5×ULN (if liver metastasis exists, ALT and AST ≤5×ULN);
    3. Serum creatinine (Cr) ≤1.5×ULN or endogenous creatinine clearance rate ≥50mL/min (Cockcroft-Gault formula);
• 10. Thyroid function index: Thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) and free thyroxine (FT3/FT4) are in normal range; Subjects could be enrolled if FT3/FT4 in the normal range,and TSH without the normal range;
• 11. Women who are not pregnant within 7 days before administration of study drug; women in child-bearing period shall agree to use medically approved effective contraception throughout the whole study period and within 6 months after completion of study;
• 12. Subjects can be followed up on schedule, able to communicate well with the investigator, and able to complete the study in accordance with the requirements of this study.

• 2. Active central nervous system (CNS) metastasis, including symptomatic brain metastasis or meningeal metastasis or spinal cord compression, etc.; asymptomatic brain metastasis can be enrolled (no progression within at least 4 weeks after radiotherapy and/or no postoperative neurological symptoms or signs, no need for treatment with glucocorticoid, anticonvulsant drugs or mannitol);

• 4. Less than 14 days before the study was conducted with major surgery or severe trauma(Subjects could be enrolled ,except for skin or percutaneous biopsy with local anesthesia ,and recovered within 7 days);
• 5. Received corticosteroids (prednisone > 10 mg/day or equivalent dose) or other immunosuppressive drugs within 14 days before administration of study drug;
• 6.

• 7. Complications requiring the treatment with immunosuppressive drugs, or complications requiring systemic treatment at the dose with immunosuppressive effects (prednisone > 10mg/day or equivalent dose to similar drug); in the absence of active autoimmune disease, inhaling or local administration of steroids and prednisone at dose > 10mg/day or equivalent dose to similar drug are allowed;
• 8.
